It's under offer. That's about 50 minutes/40km from the CBD but as you can see you get a lot of house there for your money and if we can have something like that mortgage free it's got to make the transition easier.

That particular one is also 20 minutes from the beach but is surrounded by rural land

I JUST WANT A YES OR A NO NOW!!!!!!! IM FED UP WITH WAITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rant over, feel slightly better now. Anyone else in same boat, or is it just me being impatient?

Jo
Yep I know exactly how you feel. We are also waiting for ours and although we have made the decision not to go until early Jan (to fit in with Oz new school year), the waiting is driving us mad!

We're only trying to get there by October at the latest to avoid buying Dan a new school uniform, he will only wear for a few months, as he starts secondary school in September. If we cant get there by October, we will have to wait until probably March at least, as finding somewhere to rent will be impossible in the summer months. Its so frustrating, do they do this on purpose, do you think?
